‎The Greek Idea: The Formation of National and Transnational Identities‎

‎International Library of Political Studies (Volume 22) "How do those living in diaspora form their own national and transnational identity? The Greek Idea offers a new critical paradigm from which to explore these identities. Drawing upon postcolonial theory, Maria Koundoura addresses and analyzes the cultural material that produced Greeces representation as both Europes origin and "other". The long association of Greece and English Literature began with English travellers' "discovery" of Greece in the late-eighteenth century and the reinforcement of the myth which placed Greece as the location of Western culture. However Greece now finds itself on the boundary of a Europe which had originally placed it at the center. Koundoura maps what this dual representation signifies for Greeks, both national and diasporic. In doing so she touches on England, Greece, the United States, Australia and twentieth century diaspora cultures. For scholars of postcolonial, English, European, Balkan, Modern Greek, and Diaspora studies this fascinating contribution to the growing area of transnational culture studies opens up the critical discourse in their field." 214p.bibiography index.

‎Christian, Jewish, and Muslim Preaching in the Mediterranean and Europe. Identities and Interfaith Encounters‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, ix + 337 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:9 b/w, Languages: English, French, Spanish. ISBN 9782503582719.‎

‎Summary This volume explores the sermons and activities of Christian, Jewish, and Muslim preachers who shaped ideas about religious and gendered identities and alterity throughout the Mediterranean and northern Europe. Preachers of all three traditions played a decisive role in defining the religious identities of their communities, often in response to negative images projected onto religious others. The studies cover a broad spectrum of premodern Europe and the Mediterranean and address the ways that preaching reflects transcultural contacts as well as social, intellectual, and hermeneutical encounters among diverse societies and religious communities. The essays are divided into three themes. Part One, 'Religious and Gendered Identities and Alterities,' examines how religious identity is inflected by the presence or the 'absent presence' of religious others and interrogates how gender informs religious identity, piety, and alterity. The chapters in Part Two, 'Hermeneutical Identities, Alterities, and Transcultural Relations in Christian and Jewish Preaching', offer contrasting interpretations of the impact of anti-Judaism in Christian preaching and analyse Jewish responses to Christian polemic. Part Three, 'Muslim and Christian Orators and Inter-faith Encounters,' explores these encounters from the dual perspectives of Crusade and military conflict and interreligious dialogue, disputation, and proselytization. The volume positions itself at the intellectual crossroads between comparative medieval sermons studies and transcultural Mediterranean and European studies.

The Lost Moose is really a kind of quest and includes the discoveries that people make along the way. It is the search for the perfect northern lifestyle. As legend has it the search takes people down many paths. Some have been here seemingly forever. Others start by spending just a winter learning to deal with the cold and heating with wood. They may become fascinated with the northern lights find enjoyment in going for walks at 40 below and start thinking about building a place of their own someday. Then it's the summertime exploration of rivers and forest reveling 'neath the midnight sun trying to get a piece of land and learning about land claims and politics. Along the way learning bush crafts and skills needed to cope with town life. As the revelations continue people are exposed to the many styles of life which are available in this land including the relaxed practice of horizontal living. As horizontalists whether full-time part-time or just sometimes they learn to enjoy a state of bliss with this life and this land. Experience and legend tells us this land is not for everyone; many people arrive and many leave. But for those who like what is here it seems they keep on liking it. Their search for their Lost Moose as legend would have it is still in progress and that's what this book is all about. 800 . Lost Moose paperback‎
